Installation/Upgrade

See the installation instructions for details, but it's easy:

• Please stop all projects first, this does no harm: ddev poweroff
• If you have custom configuration, especially pinned image specifications in your .ddev/config.yaml, please remove it for now.
• macOS Homebrew and Linux Linuxbrew (ddev-edge channel only): brew install drud/ddev-edge/ddev or just brew upgrade drud/ddev-edge/ddev ). (You may need a brew update for homebrew to find the new release.)
• Windows: Use choco upgrade -y --pre ddev to get this one, or download the ddev_windows_installer below.
• And anywhere, you can just download the tarball or zipball, untar or unzip it, and place the executable in your path where it belongs.

Key Features of v1.16.0-alpha3

• additional_hostnames can now be wildcarded.
• ddev-ssh-auth and router-compose docker-compose configurations can now be overridden

From earlier alpha releases

• Experimental usability as a webserver on the internet, including experimental Lets Encrypt support, see docs
• Experimental container auto-restart support
• Significantly improved performance on many ddev commands. ddev start may be twice as fast. ddev list is way faster, etc.
• TLS 1 and 1.1 disabled, TLS 1.3 enabled
• Project-specific and OS-specific commands
• Allow multiple directives including OSType and ProjectType in custom command so custom commands only show up in correct context.
• New ddev sequelace, ddev typo3, ddev typo3cms, ddev drush, ddev artisan, ddev magento, ddev wp commands
• Allow processing of PDF files with ImageMagick
• Remove drupal console from web image
• Improve docroot detection
• apache-cgi support has been removed after having been deprecated in v1.15
• Experimental custom TLS certificate support

Smaller changes

• The default nginx config no longer provides an "expires" header for css/js, so front-end developers don't have to constantly refresh browser.
• DRUSH_OPTIONS_URI is not set in the web container when disable_settings_management: true
• Standard Drupal/Backdrop settings files are used for generating settings files if none exists.
• Your entire home directory no longer has to be shared with docker, just the project directory (#2398)

Caveats

• Support for docker toolbox on Windows has been removed.
• Support for apache-cgi has been removed
